Your privacy is very important to me & I want to re-assure you that I will never personally share or distribute your email/info when you sign-up to join my mailing list. I only use this information to communicate directly with you when new content is on my site. You can opt out of this anytime by using the ‘unsubscribe’ links at the bottom of each email.
I am also VERY careful about the companies I partner with to place advertisements on my site. Typically, the links you see on my website are considered ‘affiliates’ – which means that if you purchase something from a link on my website, a very small percentage is given back to me. Thank you!
The Affiliate companies I work with (like Vitamix, Amazon, Vitacost, etc…), are all companies that I personally use and genuinely recommend. So rest assured that when I suggest a product, it means I really use it and honestly like it!
To help keep my recipes online, I also have a few advertisers on my site who place relative ads you will see occasionally on my sidebars or within a post. These companies each have their own privacy policies, so be sure to keep that in mind if you click on a link… or anywhere else on the internet for that matter! =)
As always, I couldn’t keep this site up and running without you… so thanks for all your support & encouragement!
God Bless!

P.S. The legal version of what I am trying to say is below… feel free to contact me anytime if you have any questions.
